Top-floor condo with mountain views, easy skiing, balcony & hiking

The property is run down and poorly maintained. On first impression we saw that the grounds were poorly maintained with broken furniture scattered in the snowbanks. When entering the property, a strong stench filled the hallways that seemed to linger the entire week of our stay. The condo was filthy, like it had not been cleaned from the past renters. There were not enough pots and pans to cook a single meal (we had to go to Target to purchase pots and pans and spoons!). The carpeting was stained and dirty. The walls had food splattered all over them. Some of the furniture was broken including lamps, chairs, and fans. The wi-fi was not working for the first 3 days of our stay. There were exposed wires hanging from the ceiling. The bathroom fans didn't work. The beds are horrible! The furnishings looked like they were picked up off the side of the road, or from the goodwill. The place is just gross! We had to clean all of the counters, tables, and sweep the floors before we felt comfortable. All of the baseboards were dirty. All of the extra bedding was piled into the closets on top of dirty fans and the vacuum cleaner, that looked like it hadn't been used in a long time. If you are looking for a vacation rental, I suggest that you keep looking and avoid this property. There are other places to stay, and they will be much better maintained and taken care of. Stay away from this property!

Perfect for a short stay. The place is on a third floor without elevator so it can be a challenge if you are not used to the altitude. Once on the property the views are great. The place is somewhat outdated but it was good enough for our trip and in a great location from all ski mountains.

This unit has an incredible view, which was why it was booked by us. We even saw a mother and baby moose our last morning at the property. While the walk up to the 3rd floor is hard for some, it did provide the view.

Cute place and perfect for our needs. We were there for a couple days of skiing and it was a great location to get all around Summit county. This is a rental property and decently maintained. Would we donut again? Yes.

Great accommodations! Clean, bright, spacious with beautiful views and convenient to several ski areas!

.I recommend this property

We very much enjoyed staying here, especially because of the fabulous view. As others have warned, you will get quite a workout on the stairs. It was worth it for us! Be aware that the covered parking might not work for you if you have a tall vehicle, such as a truck with a camper shell. We were still able to park, but had to walk farther on some snow and ice, and I wonder if those spots fill up on a busy weekend, especially when there's a lot of snow. There's a hairpin turn on a hill to get down to the parking, and that turn was icy. You really might need the 4WD that the listing advises. If you get to stay here, take advantage of the network of nearby beautiful hiking or snowshoeing trails. A short distance farther up Ryan Gulch Rd are trailheads for Lily Pad Lake and Buffalo Mountain. There are other trail access points lower down on Ryan Gulch Rd.

We loved the loft and the cozy feel of the house.

Our group of 6 was overall really happy with our stay. The cabin was all we needed for a ski weekend with a short drive to Breckinridge, keystone, and copper mountain! Views were amazing. Beds were comfortable, showers were hot!

The views of all the mountains were breathtaking. The condo offered plenty of room, and the covered parking right by the door was nice. The condo had almost everything you need for a lengthy stay. The condo is dated and could use updating in areas and had a few stains on the carpet, but overall the visit was good. Unfortunately, the HOA was doing maintenance in the clubhouse and we could not have use of the pool and hot tub which was one of my filters on choosing the place. Warning if you can't climb 48 steps possibly several times a day, you might not select this condo. We knew it ahead of time, but it was tough, harder than hiking in the snow.
